The Anaheim Ducks are now 14 games into the season and Cutter Gauthier still hasn't scored his first NHL goal, but that's not because of a lack of trying. In fact, Gauthier has tried almost everything in his power to break through and finally put one in the back of the net in his young career. Jason Hernandez goes deep into how snake-bitten Cutter has been this season, and how he's still contributing to the Ducks' offense in other ways. Also, the start of Gauthier's career has been unlucky to start, but who are some other players who went through long droughts before scoring their first NHL goal? Finally, we take a quick look around the NHL's Western Conference, including a historic start in Winnipeg, and the rest of the Pacific Division and where the Ducks stand right now.
